STORYTELLERS<br>

And the man walked through the acrid ash of heaven<br>

To the smoldering tree destroyed by Father's wrath<br>

And he carved from it a staff <br>

To lean on in the aftermath<br>

<br>

And the man and woman went out from the garden<br>

And when they turned to look, the pathway back was gone<br>

So they turned and set their eyes<br>

To the land that lies beyond...<br>

<br>

Red rock and outcrop stone <br>

And the sun glares off a bleaching bone<br>

There's no comfort or softness here<br>

There's only the wasteland<br>

<br>

The land of the hunter, the stalker, and the skinner<br>

Where you're either the diner or the dinner<br>

And the line between man and beast keeps getting thinner<br>

In the wasteland<br>

<br>

In the wasteland, the land laid waste<br>

Fruit of knowledge has a bitter taste<br>

But the bliss of ignorance can never be replaced<br>

It's lost in the wilderness<br>

<br>

And there came a day, in a chilly rain<br>

A child was born in sweat and pain<br>

But they loved him still and they called him Cain<br>

Of the wasteland<br>

<br>

In the wasteland, the land forlon<br>

Two more years and one more morning<br>

There's another cry heard and another boy born<br>

To be lost in the wilderness<br>

<br>

Heat-baked and dust storm-driven<br>

And one false step stays unforgiven<br>

And all that you know is you weren't made to live in<br>

The wasteland<br>

<br>

<br>
